1.2.3 Propeller selection
The performance of your outboard motor will be critically affected by your choice of propeller, as an incorrect
choice could adversely affect performance. The outboard motor is fitted with propellers chosen to perform
well over a range of applications, but there may be uses where a propeller with a different pitch would be
more appropriate. “PARSUN” dealers stock a range of propellers and can advise you and install a propeller
on your outboard that is best suited to your application.
For a greater boat load and a low engine speed, a smaller-pitch propeller is more suitable. Conversely, a
large-pitch propeller is more suitable for a smaller operating load as it enables the correct engine speed to be
maintained.
